Yay tomorrow is my surgery its finally here, whats crazy is I woke up yesterday with a sore throat scared that my temp was going to spike but it didnt went to my pre op physical yesterday and I was so worried about my temp that I never factored in my blood pressure which was high, but after about 30 min it went down to normal and luckily for me everything checked out and I was cleared by my Dr. so now im just anxiously waiting for the hospital to call me with the time that I have to be at the hospital in the AM wish me luck guys ill be checking back afterwards to let yall know how it went.

4th day out and 12 lbs gone! I hope this continues until I at least got onederland! 6 lbs to go! Loving cottage cheese today. Yummy. Taking me 3 hours to eat almost 1/2 cup! How's everyone doing today?

Oh man, I am craving cottage cheese like crazy (weird because I never cared about it one bit) but I'm 2 weeks out and not supposed to have it for 9 more days. Oof.

Two weeks post op today and I'm down 8lbs from last week. I'm worried because yesterday I felt hunger...granted I was traveling and had only 4oz of yogurt for breakfast and 4-5oz of tomato soup for lunch at noon and didn't have anything until almost 8pm which was 4oz of cottage cheese. I was hungry but it wasn't a major hunger pain but it freaked me out. I thought I would feel hunger for some time. Today I had. For breakfast I had a few bites of some egg whites and ground sausage and for lunch i had a protein shake.

I am suppose to be at the hospital by 6:30am guys I am so nervous and shaking right now. Am I doing the right thing. OMG..... My body tells me I am but my mind is now playing tricks. Why do I have such a huge headache??? Did any one feel so dramatic like I do right now.

I'm scared shitless

My band procedure was very rough.

It's normal though, just relax and go with it.

As soon as you get the gas it will all be over and you will be waking up.

Good luck honey. And walking really does help. I walked sipped took my meds and slept.

I am scheduled for September 9th. Good Luck to others!!

Katie - im with you. My surgery is on Friday and just today I have started to get little panic attacks. I KNOW that I need to do this and that I will be glad that I did but OMG what am I doing??? LOL

I am home had my surgery around 4pm Monday and its now 3.30pm Wednesday. I had no nausea and no gas pain the minimal pain I had was managed with panadol. I did also have a hiatal hernia repair as well which I had had no symptoms off. So far I've stuck completely to clear fluids mostly Water black tea and chicken broth. It all seems a little surreal as I am feeling just like me. I didn't have any emotional flatness or anything on day 2 as my surgeon predicted that I would. In fact the worse pain was from my iv in my hand where they gave me Fluid and liquid panadol up to 8am this morning.
